Megan…Amanda…Melissa….Mary?

Hot weather + long days + lots of new hires = short term memory loss. Let me explain.

Some of you may have met Mary. She’s one of the folks we hired in the last couple of weeks at the MIT truck. She’s a really hard worker, and she’s adapted to the truck really well. In the past two weeks I’ve managed to call her at least five different names other than hers. She always responds to all of them, but after the 5th time calling her the wrong name, she just says, “It’s Mary,” with a smile.

I’ll get it right some day. Glad to have you on board, Mary! Keep up the hard work.

By the way, this is Chris. Expect some more posts from me in the coming weeks, especially on new hires, nutritionals, and operations at the MIT truck.
